Following my appearance on the truncated piece about Wilde on WHYY TV’s Articulate with Jim Cotter (the broadcaster decided against the planned full show on Oscar, but that’s television), I appeared today on Radio Times with Marty Moss-Coane, WHYY’s flagship radio interview program that examines local & national news, current trends, and ideas.
I was a guest along with famed countertenor DAVID DANIELS, who plays the Oscar Wilde in the opera Oscar, and the composer THEO MORRISON, to talk about Wilde and his imprisonment, which is the main theme of the opera.
